Genomic insights into hybrid zone formation: the role of climate, landscape, and demography in the emergence of a novel hybrid lineage between Populus trichocarpa and P. balsamifera

The paper examines how climate, landscape, and demography shape hybrid zone formation between Populus trichocarpa and P. balsamifera, identifying a novel hybrid lineage influenced by aridity.

Novel genomic offset metrics account for local adaptation in climate suitability forecasts and inform assisted migration

This study develops genomic offset metrics to account for local adaptation in climate suitability forecasts and improves assisted migration strategies for red spruce.

Seeing the Forest for the trees: Assessing genetic offset predictions with Gradient Forest

This study evaluates Gradient Forest's ability to predict genetic offsets under different genetic and environmental models, finding it correlated with fitness but potentially confounded by other factors.

Adipocyte-specific modulation of KLF14 expression in mice leads to sex-dependent impacts in adiposity and lipid metabolism

This study shows that adipocyte-specific KLF14 modulation in mice has sex-dependent effects on adiposity and lipid metabolism, with female mice showing increased fat mass and altered lipid storage when KLF14 is deficient.

Hybridization disrupts growth-defense strategies and reveals trade-offs masked in unadmixed populations of a perennial plant

The paper examines how hybridization affects growth-defense strategies in Poplars by analyzing trait correlations and trade-offs after leaf rust infection.

Future climate change promotes novel gene-climate associations in balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera L.), a forest tree species

This study assesses how climate change affects gene-climate associations in balsam poplar populations, finding higher vulnerability in eastern regions with greater maladaptation and migration needs.

Climatic niche predicts the landscape structure of locally adaptive standing genetic variation

This study shows that the current climatic niche strongly structures adaptive standing genetic variation in balsam poplar, more than historical factors.
